New Year's Resolutions

Posted on June 24 2014

Do you make new year’s resolutions? It’s officially mid-January now, so it’s just about time for me to look at my resolutions and see which of them are sticking. At Miik, we have big plans for the coming year and personally I have a few goals too.

We are of course launching two new collections this year. We’ve remain committed to versatility, luxurious comfort, beautiful colours and flattering fits, but we’ve got a few surprises for you too. We’re adding a couple of new eco-friendly, gorgeous fabrics to our collections -- modal/cashmere and sorona. Can’t wait to hear what you think of them.

As a company, we hope to renew and extend relationships this year. We love our retailers and look forward to bringing them great pieces that fly off the shelves. And we are excited to be adding stores in new cities, too. The more women that have access to Miik the better, we think!

I asked the Miik staff about their own resolutions for 2013. Michael claims he’s going to lose weight and thicken his hair (neither of which seem necessary in my opinion!). He is also hard at work on a men’s line, perfecting every detail and planning its launch later this year. As for myself, I am hoping to add a little adventure to my life. Sometimes when I’m up to my eyeballs in work, laundry, kids' activities and commitments, I dream about my adventurous, care-free twenties: holidays in Thailand, years teaching abroad and mini-breaks on the California coast. Life sure is different these days…but there’s no reason I can’t add a little adventure to my life. I may not be able to pack up three kids and backpack around Europe, but I can find exciting things to do closer to home. I’m beginning to realize that a day of being a tourist in my own city and then a meal in a new restaurant can feel like an adventure, if you have the right attitude. It’s all about perspective.

I’d love to hear about your new years resolutions and what 2013 might have in store for you!
